Every day I go to the gym I see these two businesses and I think, "I can't wait for the 'buy one get one free' sale!" 🀣

Rep. James Talarico On Confronting Christian Nationalism, And Strange Days In The Texas Legislature

I see why Trump is suppressing interviews with @jamestalarico.bsky.social . He's a Christian Texan speaking out against Christian Nationalism, he's strongly advocating for the separation of Church and State, and he's making headway towards getting a seat in the Senate.

From equations on a blackboard to engines of the global economy, physics has always been the spark behind transformation.

Breakthroughs in physics shape industries, create jobs, and redefine what’s possible.

"You are what you eat" very much applies to the content we ingest, and if all we're ingesting is American media, what does that make us?

Snyder: Trump administration using words like β€˜terrorist’ and β€˜extremist’ is what tyrants do

"In order to build tyranny, you have to open zones where the law doesn't apply... one zone like that is the border. The logic of what they've been doing with ICE is to take the border everywhere."

When the rich are buying bunkers, does it not occur to them that that money would be better spent creating a world that doesn’t need bunkers?

Also: The reports of violence, arbitrary arrests, and intimidation tactics by the American regime against its own people are profoundly concerning. Canada strongly condemns the killing of protesters, and urges the USA to allow for freedom of expression and peaceful assembly without fear of reprisal.

Did Ronald Reagan Warn Against 'Demagogues' Willing to Declare a Trade War Against America's Friends? During a 1988 radio address, President Reagan railed against those calling for trade tariffs and derided protectionism as "a cheap form of nationalism."

How is this trade war going to affect you and others you know? Will you be reconsidering what you buy, like these tips suggest?
